On November 17, an incident took place aboard AirTran Flight 297 scheduled to fly from Atlanta Hartsfield Airport to Houston that the media does not want to cover and everyone from the airline to the TSA and other government agencies want to keep very quiet. The reasons, I have been told, is fear of predatory lawsuits, negative publicity from accusations of religious profiling, and the obligatory subjugation to mindless mandatory Muslim sensitivity training that make a mockery of our American system of values. Interestingly, one airline official told me “we don’t want to become another flight 300,” which is a reference to a very similar scenario that took place aboard US Airways Flight 300 exactly three years ago.

I was first contacted about this incident two days after it happened by a passenger who was aboard AirTran Flight 297. Based on the allegations made by this passenger, we conducted additional research, interviews and investigation, all of which takes time to insure accuracy, and are now able to release our report of the incident that took place aboard that aircraft. Be prepared to be shocked, angered, and perhaps saddened by our national and corporate acquiescence to mafia-type tactics by Islamists who are engaged in a full frontal assault, and laughing about it.

Unsurprisingly, the facts we developed during the course of our investigation are inconsistent with those being reported in the media, despite the media having the responsibility to report the truth.
The incident

A group of thirteen men dressed in traditional Muslim attire were among 73 passengers who boarded AirTran Flight 297 on Tuesday, 17 November 2009, a routine flight scheduled to depart Atlanta Hartsfield Airport, gate C-16 at 4:43 PM ET to Houston Hobby Airport. Reports developed by this investigator found two witnesses who observed direct interaction among all of these Muslim men at the terminal.

As the passengers boarded the aircraft, two of the Muslim men took seats in first class, while the remaining eleven were seated throughout the remaining rows of the aircraft. Most had carrying-on bags that they stowed in the overhead compartments above their seats.

As the aircraft began to taxi to the runway, a female flight attendant was beginning to issue the normal passenger advisories over the PA system. Almost on cue at the time passengers were told to turn off all electronic devices, one of the Muslim men seated in the front of the plane began to use his cell phone in a manner that was described by a flight attendant and passenger “as deliberate and obvious.” He was talking loudly in Arabic, nearly at the level of the flight attendant. Some reports suggest that this man actually called another Muslim passenger, although this has not been immediately confirmed. It is possible, however, as another passenger reported that a Muslim man seated toward the rear of the plane answered his cellular phone at the same time the man in the front began using his.

At this point, the flight attendant in the front of the plane approached the Muslim man using his telephone and instructed him to immediately turn it off. A second female flight attendant did the same at the rear of the aircraft. Concurrent with this cellular activity, two other Muslim men seated adjacent near the middle of the aircraft began operating what one passenger described as a palm type camcorder, ostensibly to view previously taken footage. It is possible, according to one flight attendant interviewed by this investigator, however, that the camcorder was being used for recording purposes. Whatever its use, a third flight attendant, aware of the incidents taking place in the front and rear of the aircraft, approached the two men for the purpose of securing the camcorder. At least two passengers reported that the men became abusive to the flight attendant and initially refused to comply with her request.

It was at this time that most of the passengers began to notice the multiple incidents involving over a dozen men dressed in Islamic attire. Next, as if previously rehearsed, at least ten of the 13 Muslim men aboard the aircraft began to leave their seats at the same time. At least one passenger stated she observed one of the Muslim passengers using his cell phone to take photos of other passengers on the aircraft, while one other Muslim passenger sang loudly in Arabic. According to information provided to this investigator from one of the flight crew who was alerted to an onboard emergency, the aircraft was now being taxied back to the terminal. The TSA, FAA and FBI were notified.
At the terminal

Once back at the terminal, the thirteen men were escorted from the aircraft by TSA and security officials. According to a report from an airline security official, their baggage was also removed and searched, the search finding nothing of apparent danger. According to a law enforcement official interviewed by telephone by this investigator on Monday, investigation revealed that all of the Muslim passengers are acquainted with each other and are associated with (or have ties to) a large Islamic center that has been the subject of investigative interest.

According to one aircraft passenger I interviewed, what happened next was “unbelievable” and caused a great deal of upset among the aircraft passengers and flight crew (some who opted off the flight in anger, fear, or admittedly, a mixture of both emotions).

After a lengthy delay while officials dealt with these Muslim passengers, ten (one uncorroborated report suggests 11) of the Muslim passengers were permitted to re-board the same aircraft to complete their flight. Some passengers and flight crew, traumatized by the blatant actions of the Muslim passengers, refused to travel with the Muslims who caused this orchestrated disturbance.
The flight continues

According to flight logs and information from one of the flight crew who continued with the flight, AirTran 297 ultimately departed Atlanta and arrived in Houston later that evening. The flight, however, was not without its curious incidents by the very same Muslim men who caused the initial delay and disturbance.

During the flight, one passenger interviewed by this investigator described the behavior of two of the Muslim passengers as less overt but still suspicious in nature. Without apparent legitimate purpose, one Muslim passenger moved a stowed bag from one part of the aircraft to another, well away from his seated position. Another spoke loudly in Arabic, with all appearing to interact in one form or another.

Ultimately, the flight landed safely and despite the early incidents in Atlanta, the Muslim passengers appeared able to leave freely from the terminal.
Comments from flight crew and airline personnel

As initially stated, proper and accurate investigation takes time to corroborate eyewitness accounts, which are often unreliable, contradictive and in cases like this, colored by emotion. Having interviewed a total of seven-(7) individuals directly involved in this incident over the last several days, including two law enforcement officers who handled the after action reports, the situation pertaining to the initial 13 and remaining 10 or 11 Muslim men allowed to continue their travels was far greater than an incident involving the unauthorized use of a cell phone that resulted in a minor flight delay, as reported by the mainstream media.

According to one airline security official, “This was a deliberate, well planned attempt to disrupt a domestic flight that was organized in advance of the boarding of these [Muslim] passengers. The purpose of their actions appeared to be multi-faceted, not the least of which was an attempt to change their status from passengers to victims of religious profiling. The situation was handled in a manner that we believe might have avoided an incident like USAir had in 2006, where everyone from the passengers who reported suspicious behavior to the airline was subjected to legal action by the Muslim passengers.”

While litigation might have been avoided, passengers and flight crew remain traumatized, and our air travel system was unnecessarily disrupted during one of the busiest air travel weeks in the U.S. The agenda of the Islamists behind this incident is clear, yet no one in the media seems to have the desire to expose these ideological cretins for what they are.

Additional information about this incident is forthcoming.

Here is a link to a Snopes analysis of the story, thus far:http://www.snopes.com/politics/religion/flight297.asp

I suspect it was a stunt, similar to the "Flying Imams" incident, in which Muslims are intentionally scaring people to drum up a lawsuit or make some civil rights claims about racism or discrimination.

This is a perfect example of how political correctness can be used as a weapon. If the airline had ejected every single one of the towel-heads as they should have, then you can guarantee that all the news organizations would be playing up the story of how the "evil airline discriminated against these poor, peaceful Muslims who were simply minding their own business."

If the story description is accurate, and I were a passenger on that plane, I would have demanded to be let off the plane if they allowed those men to remain on the flight. If every passenger walked off the plane, the airlines would get the message pretty quickly that customers will not put up with this craziness.

Maybe airlines should add video surveillance to their planes. That way, when they throw someone off for causing a disturbance, they'll have the evidence to back it up.

The sad thing is that someday we will have another terrorist attack occur inside our country. At that time political correctness will be put aside again to deal with the immediate disaster at hand...but it will be too late.

When will our country learn? When will the flaming pansy liberals stop wagging the dog in our country and instead have our country operate in a sovereign manner? If this EVER occurs I am afraid that it will be once again at the expense of many lives...and possibly too late.

Why should they get a pass because people don't want to be "offensive" because they are muslim when if you or I did something like that our butt would be in jail for jeopardizing the safety of the plane and everyone on board. Forget for one moment that they were muslim. They were people acting suspicious and being deliberately disruptive to the flight of that plane and possibly a danger to everyone else on board. If I were on that plane acting like that they wouldn't know whether I was muslim, catholic, atheist or just plain nuts, but they would want me contained and removed and I wouldn't in all probability be allowed to get back on the plane. So why the "special" treatment for these men who apparently were muslim?! Oh, wait, it was because they were muslim!

I know, why don't we ALL dress muslim and act any damn way we please that way we can get away with this shyte too.

Bonnie your point would be completely valid IF these guys were any sort of a real threat. But they weren't. Actual facts on this are sketchy at best but the story at Snopes casts a slightly different light on this issue then what's reported here. At best it was a prank/hoax at worst it was some people being rude. Have any of you ladies actually flown in an airplane before???? :huh:

Nobody received a "pass" and if you or I did the same thing I doubt we would be treated differently. I don't think I've ever been on a flight without some arrogant jerk on his cellphone talking loudly or ignoring the FA. 9/11 makes people nervous around Arab's and that's understandable but let's use some common sense here.. I highly doubt a large group of Muslims dressed in traditional Muslim attire and speaking loudly in Arabic are ever going to hijack a plane again. Little obvious don't you think??? And let's not forget this plane was STILL ON THE GROUND. What's the threat?? :blink:

I fly all the time and I don't see bad behavior. I see people being very aware of the heightened security status and acting accordingly. I see people being very patient with delays at security checkpoints. Maybe you are just ok with accepting idiocy but I'm not.

Just days after 9/11 I stood in line for 6 hours to give blood. Yeah, no big deal. But behind me was a woman in traditional muslim garb and people were ugly to her. She still stood there. She waited the full 6 hours just like I did to give her blood for those who might need it. We were in PA, just on the NJ border. Maybe an hour and a half away from NYC. We lost townfolks in the towers. We had a large amt of commuters so emotions were running pretty high. When we finally got up to be triaged prior to being stuck, one of the workers noticed the muslim lady. She asked me, "Should I be scared?" I told her no. That lady was American and had stood in line the same amt of time I had to donate something she was not required to give even though many people had been ugly to her. True story. So it isn't that these guys were muslims. It was the behavior. I truly don't give a rat's butt what people look like in situations like the one mentioned in the first post. I think now the terrorists would wear regular clothing so they wouldn't stand out in order to get through security anyway.

I'll stop my rant now. Judge me all you want for saying we shouldn't tolerate bad behavior in airports or on airplanes. I don't give a rat's butt. I'll continue to judge the behavior of those I am forced to be around and if I feel there is a security risk, you bet your bottom dollar I will speak up or get off the plane.

This just in, women actually have brains. From fellow poster, super mod, and registered nurse, Amy, has proven that yes, us women have brains. And not only that, they can think for themselves too. Oh snaps.

Hey, I'm going to take a leaf out of the late Farrah Fawcet's book. “God made man stronger but not necessarily more intelligent. He gave women intuition and femininity. And, used properly, that combination easily jumbles the brain of any man I've ever met.”

Yes, let's please start using some common sense! And let's start by stopping with all the "political correctness" crap (Fort Hood!). I can treat you (that's a "general" you, Chuck) with common decency and courtesy whether I believe in your sexual orientation, religious beliefs, etc... or not. If I'm on a plane and a person (or in this case several people) starts doing stuff that is suspicious, you bet I'm going to be alarmed and want that person taken off. You say at best it was a hoax/prank. :blink: Is that supposed to make me feel better, reassure me, that some idiots decided to pull a prank on a plane that's fixing to take off. Really, Chuck. We should treat it so lightly after 9/11. And, I'd like to see you pull a stunt like that and see if you're treated with the same kid gloves and put nicely back on the plane. Yeah, right!

Two things: 1) I have flown on a plane quite a few times (btw, that "actually" sounded a mite condescending friend), and 2) it's not our "playtex" whipping in the breeze, it's your jockstrap. We figured we might as well put it to better use. :tongue0011:

Oh and Chuck, :) dearest Chuck. You know what I think is cute, when you all of a sudden act like a dick.
You think I'm cute???? :happydancing::happydancing:

...I think the Amazonian Flag sounds cooler.
Is that the name of that one river that flows through the Vajayjay village?? :D

Yeah, I could have done without the condescending tone of his post.
:sad: I was trying more for sarcastic/witty.... my bad.

I find it ironic that the women who all think for themselves are agreeing with each other. :laugh:

If I'm on a plane and a person (or in this case several people) starts doing stuff that is suspicious, you bet I'm going to be alarmed and want that person taken off.
It wasn't several people who misbehaved.. .it was only 3 and I said in my first post I thought they should be kicked off the flight. :wink:

Why yes... yes I do!! :D So off with the shirts ladies and somebody go fetch me a samich!!!

The tragic thing D is that picture is actual size... :cry:

Don't quibble, it's unbecoming. Anything over 2 is "several". :laugh:

You were late and missed the samich, so Ben took your place. :tongue0011:

Oh Chuck, you have forever etched an image in my mind that not even pictures of Neal Patrick Harris shirtless and in his boxers could erase. :laugh::laugh:

I fly all the time and I don't see bad behavior. I see people being very aware of the heightened security status and acting accordingly. I see people being very patient with delays at security checkpoints. Maybe you are just ok with accepting idiocy but I'm not.

Just days after 9/11 I stood in line for 6 hours to give blood. Yeah, no big deal. But behind me was a woman in traditional muslim garb and people were ugly to her. She still stood there. She waited the full 6 hours just like I did to give her blood for those who might need it. We were in PA, just on the NJ border. Maybe an hour and a half away from NYC. We lost townfolks in the towers. We had a large amt of commuters so emotions were running pretty high. When we finally got up to be triaged prior to being stuck, one of the workers noticed the muslim lady. She asked me, "Should I be scared?" I told her no. That lady was American and had stood in line the same amt of time I had to donate something she was not required to give even though many people had been ugly to her. True story. So it isn't that these guys were muslims. It was the behavior. I truly don't give a rat's butt what people look like in situations like the one mentioned in the first post. I think now the terrorists would wear regular clothing so they wouldn't stand out in order to get through security anyway.

I'll stop my rant now. Judge me all you want for saying we shouldn't tolerate bad behavior in airports or on airplanes. I don't give a rat's butt. I'll continue to judge the behavior of those I am forced to be around and if I feel there is a security risk, you bet your bottom dollar I will speak up or get off the plane.

Pitch their butt's in the street and tell them where the bus station is. No, don't say nothing about the bus. :angry::angry:
